4 bed detached house for sale

Linden Close, Prestbury, Cheltenham GL52

A substantial extended detached house occupying the largest plot within a small Bovis Homes development, with a double garage & set amidst beautiful gardens backing directly onto open green space surrounding Cheltenham Racecourse

Built approximately 40 years ago, this attractive detached house has been thoughtfully extended on the ground floor to enhance the main sitting room and create an adjoining home office and workroom. The property occupies a superb position at the head of a small, peaceful cul-de-sac, enjoying unspoilt views across countryside walks surrounding Cheltenham’s famous Racecourse. The house has been well maintained and updated over the years, while still offering an incoming purchaser excellent potential for further improvement through remodelling or additional extension, subject to the necessary consents. On entering, a redesigned reception hall provides space for dining or relaxation and includes a cloakroom, with doors leading to the kitchen and sitting room. The kitchen opens into a bright breakfast/dining room, which can also serve as a garden snug, featuring patio doors opening onto the rear garden. The extended sitting room is generously proportioned and benefits from patio doors to the garden, along with access to a home office with fitted storage and an adjoining workroom. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes, along with an en-suite shower room and a family bathroom. The rear-facing views from this level are particularly impressive.

Outside
An expansive driveway provides ample off-road parking, complemented by an attached double garage with twin remote-controlled roller shutter doors, lighting, loft storage, and a personal door into the house. Gated access on both sides leads to the rear garden, with a soft flowering shrub bed bordering the driveway. The rear garden is a delightful and standout feature of the property, beautifully landscaped and generous in size. It includes well-positioned seating areas, a patio, contoured lawn, summerhouse, garden shed, and mature, well-stocked shrub borders. There is also discreet direct access onto the open green space surrounding the Racecourse, popular with walkers.

Situation
Located just 1.5 miles from Cheltenham town centre, the property enjoys an outstanding position adjoining glorious countryside and Cheltenham Racecourse, while being only a 5 –10 minute walk from the village Centre. This historic village offers an eclectic range of local amenities, including an artisan butcher, bakery and kitchen, hairdresser, Raymond Blanc gastro pub, the Royal Oak, and The Plough Inn.
